Travelling discovery of Hue in Vietnam

The ancient tomb imperial city of Hue on the bank of the Perfume River is my next destination. I visited the citadel, the home of Minh emperor, where once stood the forbidden city, but open only to the emperors and their concubines. Any trespass will be punishable by death. Not much really left on the site. it took a bit of orbiting, not one but two military campaigns. I then take a dragon boat to visit numerous historical sites, including the pagoda and the tomb of the emperor.
For my Hue story, I met up with a local cab server, Nhi. At the moment I am a student and doing economics as a major of the Bachelor of commerce. I hope to run a rice company because my parents at the moment they own a rice company but really a small one. I just want to apply what I have been doing and have been learning to make it very scientific method. Nhi decides to take me for a tour outside the city to visit a little known historical site. Today we are going to a bridge, a tradition bridge of Hue. It has been there for 260 years. It had a historical story about it. There was a lady, she didn't have any children, but she was a wife of a very rich man. People there, when there is a lake they can't cross the lake. So she thought that she had no children, but she had a lot of money so she built a bridge for everyone.
While at the bridge we're approached by a fortune teller, and decide to get our palms read. In Vietnam, people really believe in luck and in the destiny. Thing that happened to them is something that God arranged already. Most of people really be careful with something they do, for example, for someone is like the reseller in a shop, you shouldn't go in the morning and return something, the thing on that day, they will have a bad luck. But nowadays, they are changing about the fortune teller because young people don't really believe in them compared with the older people and of all the previous generation. My reading started well, I will be rich, and live alright till old age, then thing took an interesting turn. I can marry football... and that's the end of it. Now, you can have another wife... and baby.
Near by the bridge was a museum, housing the traditional artefacts. As I filmed, the elderly attendant gave me a demonstration of how each items work. A star was born. I think this delightful old woman has waited a long, long time to finally realise her acting dream.

Phổ thôngthe home of Minh emperor,
I am confused. Who's supposed to be the fucking Minh Emperor mentioned here?
